CAN a HUSBAND OPEN MS WIFE's
LETTERS?

That would depend, many
would say, upon what kind Of a
husband he is. But it cannot be
put aside in that fiippant manner,
for it is a legal right that is io
question, and il has recently been
decided in Paris tribunal that
the husband has q right to open
the letters addressed to his wife.
OF course IL America an appeal
would instantly be taken from
this decision, and perhaps BY hus-
bands themselves; for ia this
world rights are becoming so inn
partially distributed that this
privilege granted TO tie husband
might al once be extended 10 the
wife, and she would read all his
business correspondence, and his
business is sometimes various and
complicated. The Paris decision
must be based upon the familiar
formula that man and wife are
one, and that one is tho husband.
II man has the right TO read all
the letters written to his wife,
being his property By reason Of
his ownership ofher, why may he
not have a legal right to know all
that is said TO her? fhc question
is not whether wife ought to
rec i've letters that her husband
may not read, or listen to talk
that be may not hear, but whether
he has a sort of lordship that
gives him privileges which she
does not enjoy. In our moder
notion Of marriage. which IS get
iing itself expressed in statute law
| marriage is supposed to rest upor
mutual trust and mutual rights
! In theory the husband and wifi,
are still ono, and there can moth
ing come into the life Of one TIM
Is not shared by the other: M fact
if the marriage is perfect and III
trust absolute, the personality o
each is respected by the other, an'
each Is freely the judge Of wha
shall be contributed to the com
mon confidence; and if there ar
any coacealmenis, it IS well be-
lievsd that they are for the mutua
good. If every one were as per
feet in the marriage relation a
those who are reading these lines
, ihe question Of the wiie's letter
would never arise. The ma
G trusting his wife, would not car
